Great stay for a larger group
Great stay for a larger group; location by the beach and distance to local food and drink scene by foot made it ideal for us. Beachview team was responsive with all communication and helped us confirm our reservation after a series of earlier cancellations from different hosts. Would recommend staying here.
This was an awesome place to stay. We stayed just a couple nights and wish it was longer. Location is super close to the ocean, places to eat and a grocery store. check in/out was very easy with no issues. The place was as advertised in pictures, but actually felt it was bigger than the pictures could do it justice. Highly recommend staying at this location!

I'd recommend this house to anyone
My wife and I enjoyed our stay. We both have family members in California and I made sure to inform the hosts that they will be coming by and they let me adjust our head count literally 10 minutes before check in. We had the upstairs unit. Aside the first few days of us staying, we didn't have downstairs neighbors so really no noise problem. We were literally 10 steps away from the beach and maybe a solid 10 minute enjoyable walk from the pier. A slightly outdated home but it got the job done. Comfortable, clean, had everything we needed. Only downside I'd say was having to pay for washer and dryer but we used my sisters washer and dryer so just be prepared to bring quarters incase you need it. Two car garage so don't stress about parking on the busy neighborhood street. Why pay 5K+ for a direct beach house when you can stay here and only be 10 steps away from the sand? I'd recommend this house to anyone.
Host was very courteous and timely with all correspondence. Excellent location 1 house from the beach! Close to everything- walking distance to local restaurants, shops and the Pier. Well appointed home. Loved our stay for family gathering. We will go back!!
This was a good find, very spacious and clean. The kitchen was stocked with equipment for most cooking needs. And the beach being so close made morning walks fabulous.
The location was great and there was plenty if room for our party of 7. Updating the furniture and dishwasher would be beneficial, because the sofa is very uncomfortable and hard to get up and down from……even for the younger folks. We used the dishwasher and the dishes were still dirty and had to be hand washed to get them clean. This was completely unacceptable. The house was very cold, especially the furthest bedroom in the back. Unfortunately, the weather was less than perfect, which couldn’t be helped. Not sure I would stay there again, at this price.
We were very pleased with this property and had a great time. Loved how close we were to the beach and restaurant were within walking distance. The only thing I would suggest is to have some kind of window coverings in the bedrooms. We used blankets because the street light are pretty bright. Overall we had no complaints.
Beach view was great and fabulous location, but the rental was shabby, fridge barely works, patio table needed to be trashed, paint peeling inside or shelving partially painted. Couch barely usable, tv in master didn’t work and there were flies everywhere especially in downstairs unit.

Overall Nice Rental
We had a great family vacation. The house was overall nice. But it needs some serious upkeep. Dishwasher was unusable and it sprayed water everywhere, master bedroom bed frame is held together with rachet straps and the legs of the frame underneath the mattress are so bent they dont touch the floor, there is little to no water pressure in the masterbath shower and DO NOT flush the master toilet or use any hot water in the house while showering. You will get a cold blast of water.
With that said, the property manger delt with issues quickly and were very friendly. I would recommend this rental to anyone wanting to stay steps from the beach.

Great location. Old apartment
The apartment is centrally located , one block from the dang beach. That’s pretty much the only good thing I can say.
The apartment is old. Anything you can think of can use an update. Kitchen, bathrooms furnitures.
During our stay we had a power outage in the kitchen. Property management was quick to respond but Maintenance guys indicated that they are visiting the place frequently due to its poor condition. Electrician mentioned that the wires were corroded…
We enjoyed our stay despite these issues but it was mostly due to the location.

Perfect
It was so beautiful and perfect beach is right there. Just wake up and go.
Yes it is so cal where most times you don't need heat, but this week you did need it. And it didn't work. Management co did bring some floor heaters that did help a little. It was also awesome coming home from Disneyland to have your front door wide open. Done by owners hearing person..Location was great. House just needs love from window coverings to pots pans. I wouldn't stay here again.

Great Location!
Less than a minute walk to the beach! Furnishings/amenities are basic but we found it fit our needs. Great for a larger group on a budget.
